66-Year-Old Mom Has Never Worn Makeup, Now She Looks Totally Different With It

Emerald Pellot graduated summa cum laude from New York University with a degree in Writing & Popular Culture. She worked as Senior Editor of College Candy for 2 years, covering feminism, popular culture, and college life before joining LittleThings in 2015. Based in New York City, Emerald covers a wide range of topics from human interest pieces to celebrity news.

Cassie Baker from North Brunswick, New Jersey, is 66 years old and has never worn makeup a single day in her life: Not on her wedding day, and not even on her children’s wedding days. It is not as though anyone needs makeup, but applying it is a great trick to have up your sleeve.

Overwhelmed by concealers, foundations, and eyeliners, she just never learned how to do it. However, Cassie has been divorced for over a decade now. She’s ready to get back into the dating scene but is lacking confidence in her appearance.

“I just don’t have the confidence right now in how I look,” Cassie said. “I want to feel as good on the outside as I do on the inside.”

Although the practically wrinkle-free woman looked great beforehand, she wore the new glamorous look beautifully. Makeup artist Cynde Watson didn’t just give Cassie a makeover, she also gave her the tools to do the look on her own.

It’s easy to get dolled up by a hair stylist or at a makeup counter, but if you can’t redo their techniques later, what’s the use?

Now Cassie can do her concealer, foundation, blush, bronzer, eyeshadow and liner on her own for those date nights we’re sure she’ll be having.
